Boulder County announced a new public health order Thursday barring all college-aged individuals from gathering for at least two weeks.

Exceptions to the order include exercising outside if individuals are alone, studying outside alone, and attending work if they don’t live in a residence that follows stay-at-home requirements. Individuals within the age group are only permitted to be in contact and interact with their household members under the order, which also exempts high school students who are still allowed to participate in sanctioned school activities.

It would make a lot more sense to limit the size of gatherings for everyone than to do such an arbitrary and legally fraught age discrimination policy.

They didn't include an exception for "sexual and romantic partners (limit 1 partner for individual)", which is outrageous.

[The Free North]

Justified. Only 99.999% of them will survive Covid if infected. With numbers like that, we can't be too safe.

[Fuzzy Bear]

I'm sure there's an exemption for politically violent rioting.  The flames emitting from the buildings they are burning will kill the virus, no doubt.

Good.
It’s a shame Atlas posters are trying to ignore the seriousness of this disease for political gain/to make themselves feel smarter than they are, and honestly, the TOS should not apply to virus downplayers on here.
Regardless, reopening the college was probably a mistake, Colorado was doing great with the virus and now it’s dramatically increased.
